This photo was taken in Olafsfjördur, a 800 inhabitants town on the north of Iceland where I spent the month of March in 2016 as part of an Art Residency Program.
The person on the photo is a performer friend of mine who also participated.
Being in such a remote place during winter was quite a challenge.
I started exploring nudity as a way of keeping up with the loneliness.
